Captives
                Adam removed his shirt and reached for Dani’s hand. Something was wrong, he could sense it. He had to find out what and bring her home. Placing a gentle kiss on her palm he pressed his teeth to her arm before biting into it until her blood flooded his mouth. He groaned tasting the familiar sweetness he hadn’t had in quite some time. It was like liquid ambrosia, far sweeter then the truffles she made.
                Forcing himself to stop he withdrew his razor sharp fully elongated fangs. It plunged him deep into ecstasy having been gorging Dani’s unconscious body on blood to nourish her back to health. He looked down at Dani, his eyes glowing bright as he bit into his own hand opening a deep wound before covering Dani’s mouth with it. He felt her tongue press against the open bite before she anxiously began to drink. His chest began to heave in excitement as he wrapped one arm around her, holding her tight. When he felt the wound on his hand begin to close, he ripped his hand from her, her lips red with his blood. He couldn’t resist the tantalizing temptation and instantly consumed them, her blood still on his own.
                His free hand cupped her face, his claws tracing her flawless beautiful skin. He looked down at her sleeping for he held against him, “Come to me sweetheart.” He whispered gently covered her eyes with his hand closing his own. “Come home to me.” Kissing her once more he swept her up into his arms moving them into a more comfortable spot as he lay down with her holding her tight. He gazed at her another moment before closing his eyes, resting his face against hers holding her even tighter still. Before long he drifted off into sleep.
                When he opened his eyes, he was staring up at a ceiling fan. He frowned watching the way it slowly turned and the sad disrepair it was in. He lifted his head looking around not recognizing this place. However it looked like someone’s apartment . . .almost like one you might find in Tangiers.
                Sitting up he tried to remember ever being in one like this in the time they had spent there but nothing was coming to mind. Standing he walked around looking for something to spark a memory. When he turned back his eyes went wide Dani lay on the bed he had just stood from exactly where and how he had been lying. Instantly he moved back, “Dani?” He touched her face but she was just as gone here as she was when he was awake. “Dani? Dani!” He tapped her face trying to get a response, a reaction, anything yet nothing. Not even a twitch. “What the fuck is going on?” He looked her over finding her wearing the scrubs she wore when she worked at the clinic in Tangiers.
                After a moment it dawned on him where he was, who this apartment belonged to. He hadn’t been here before but Dani had many times, and under extreme duress. A place she would never willingly return to in a million years. “This isn’t your dream, is it.” He cupped her face in his hands, “It’s . . .”
                “Mine.” Adam instantly stood instinctively putting himself between Dani and anything that might harm her. He was at a loss as he stared at a face that he hated more than any other, Sean starring back at him. He grinned at Adam walking further into the room, “Well. Don’t you look surprised.”
                “You aren’t here. You’re dead.” Adam snapped turning back towards Dani convinced this must have been her nightmare. Sean smiled and walked closer looking down at the sleeping nurse.
                “I imagine that’s what you and your . . . . wife, is it? . . . intended when you fed me her blood. But as usual, it wasn’t taken into account how unique she truly is.” Adam took Dani’s hand squeezing it tight refusing to acknowledge Sean.
                “Dani, wake up. Open your eyes.” He demanded.
                Sean just chuckled and shook his head, “You’re out of your depth here, vampire.” He scoffed. “There were a lot of factors no one took into account actually. The amount of time she and I were living together in the compound, the experiments they performed on her . . .on us. The fact they were infusing and feeding my blood into her every day for weeks.” Sean turned leaning on the wall starring at Adam.
                “You. Are. Dead.” Adam repeated again through grit teeth keeping his eyes on his young vampire.
                The young doctor just looked at him before beginning to laugh. “You never told her, did you. You told her I was dead, but you never explained to her how you intended it.” Sean laughed even louder, “No, I don’t suppose you would have. Killing has never really been her strong suit has it. If she knew what the two of you did with her blood, with every intention of causing me a slow, withering, painful death. She would be beyond mortified. With both of you.”
                Neither Eve nor Adam ever spoke of what happened to Sean. They never gave details of how he met his end. At least, how he should have met his end. Adam’s narrowed eyes slid towards this disgusting excuse for a creature.
                “You needn’t be disappointed, Adam. I have suffered more then even you can imagine. You who has coughed so much suffering in the centuries you’ve been lurking about in the shadows.” He stepped closer to them looking at Dani again, “Although I am curious to know what it was you did to her to drive her to me.” Adam’s eyes flashed when he said that. “You must have done something absolutely horrendous. All this time trying to find her, trying to reach out for her and just like that she is suddenly right here with me. In the flesh, so to speak. Whatever happened must have been severe.”
                “You have no business here. You are not welcome.” Adam said his jaw clinching tighter, “Get out of her head and leave her be.”
                “The feeling is incredibly mutual.” Sean responded, “So wake up and go back to your timeless life of decadence and leave her alone. This is where she belongs, here with me.”
                Adam’s eyes flashed, “You!” He hissed in anger, “What calim could you possiably have to her? Lying to her? Deciving her? Blackmailing her? Torturing and betraying her over and over again?? Only in your twisted head could you think that gives you any right to her or her life.” Sean just smirked crossing his arms having no fear of Adam whatsoever in this place.
                “What have you done in her life that gives you any more right to her, Adam?” Sean asked, “She is a grown and intelligent young woman. You treat her like you’ve always treated her. Like a child. You have selfishly kept her even though you are with someone else. You have a wife but you do not allow Dani to see anyone else. She’s faithful to you, but never have you been faithful to her.”
                Adam shook his head in disbelief, “You’ve been away for some time boy. You have no idea how things are in my family. Not that you ever did to begin with.”
                Sean grinned again, “Well it seems in your ‘family’ it’s common and perfectly acceptable enough to remember one member before another is added.” Adam’s brow furrowed when he said that his eyes sliding towards Sean. “How long did it take you to kill Ava? I imagine that was something you’ve been dreaming of doing for years.”
                “How do you know of that?” There was no reason, no way Dani would have told him anything about her. She never spoke about them, about Eve, Ava, or Jeremy. She was far to protective of them to give any details about their lives.
                “You know, my body may have suffered some intense trauma when you force fed me Dani’s blood, but it gave me some other incredibly useful and powerful abilities. You have dabbled in this realm over time, but this? This is where I live, where I exist, where the two of you left me. I’ve been trying to find her ever since then and finally it was you who brought her to me. Thank you.”
                “And this is how you want her? How you’ve always wanted her? Helpless, defenseless, vulnerable . . . her body at your mercy with no way to defend herself. It’s the only way you have ever had a chance with her.” He snapped.
                “If it wasn’t for you, we would have been together. Things would have gone as they were meant to go in Tangiers. She wanted me, and more and more we were falling for each other and you couldn’t stand it. You couldn’t stand that she was attracted to someone other then you, so you make certain that she knew and understood who it was she ‘belonged’ to and she pushed me away. As though she’d done something horribly wrong by showing interest in me.” How could he possibly know all these things? Dani would have never told him such intimate details, she hated him for what he had done to her. To their family.
                “It was your lies and betrayal that turned her against you. You were hired to seduce her, use her, then turn her over to those who would gleefully torture her for their own sadistic ends. What’s more you endangered all of us which made her hate for you swell even more.” Adam hissed, “You intruded on what you couldn’t possibly understand, and never have you been welcome in our house.”
                Sean just smirked walking closer, “Look how beautiful she is Adam. It isn’t just her strong, young, firm and sexy body. Her beauty radiates from inside of her.” His eyes darkened as the turned towards Adam. “All the care, concern, love . . . unwavering loyalty and devotion she believes she owes to you and gives to you completely without question. Blinded to the fact that you could never reciprocate.” He snapped, “Because you have already given all of yours to someone else. Her affections and devotion is wasted on you.” He said in agitated disgust. “IF you truly ‘love’ her as you claim to, you’d let her find her own happiness. With someone who loves her with their very soul. Someone who would keep her heart safe and treasured and cherished as it always should have been.”
                “I have better things, more important than your childish nonsense.” He growled slightly becoming even more agitated then before.
                “I was rather surprised that Ava couldn’t lure her out from the house. She seemed so promising, and was very convincing. She’s easily bought with just a few fresh hot pints of AB-.” Adam stared at him, “We were the ones who sent her to you. To report what was going on, and to drive Dani from the house itself where she would be vulnerable and we could pick her up. Bring her back to me, where she belongs. Yet it seems that Ava may have overstated her influence on the two of you.”
                “So you work for them willingly now.” Adam scoffed, “Before you insisted you had no choice, it was the only way to help her. At least now you’ve dropped the silly act.”
                “Don’t give me that ‘holier than that’ crap.” Sean snapped. “You used her before she was turned and you have used her every since.”
                “ENOUGH OF THIS! Do not presume to criticize what you could never understand. Regardless of what you think or believe in that tiny brain of yours, she is mine. And she is so by choice.” Adam looked back at her unconscious form at the loss for why she was like this in her sleep.
                “She’s mine now Adam. You might have her physical body but I have what’s inside. That which makes her, her. She’s going to stay here with me where you and everyone else can’t reach her or try to take her from me ever again.” Sean said in dead seriousness.
                Adam’s eyes flashed, “And this?” He said motioning to her, “Still the only way you can have her. Helpless, vulnerable, your own personal plaything? Nothing more then a doll!” He roared in anger.
                “You did this to her, not me. You traumatized her enough in the waking world she locked herself away even further here to hide from it. To hide from you. Once you’re away from her, I imagine she’ll feel safe enough to come out of hiding.” Sean said venom dripping from his voice.
                Adam had just about had enough of his lip. He’d been feeling guilty and responsible about the distress and agony Dani had been in. Knowing that she could be impregnated, he pushed it aside and ignored it. Taking her every day without taking into account the consequences or her well being. “Dani is mine. She’s coming home to me. If you dare interfere with her further . . . I won’t be as merciful as I was to you before. I’ll keep you alive and awake for days. Every wrong you’ve committed against us, will be paid for.”
                “Hmm.” Sean said looking at him. “Interesting. Do you think that’s what they did to her when they ripped her apart?” Adam’s claws grew longer, sharper, as he suppressed the anger filled growl . “You aren’t welcome here anymore. GO back to your own life, with your wife, living in the shadows.” Adam roared and started to lunge at him, but Sean effortlessly held up his hand making Adam freeze in place, unable to move. Needless to say, he was caught off guard and in shock. Sean stepped closer, “This is my world. Remember?” He said with a smirk. “Goodbye.”
                With that he threw Adam back at Dani, throwing him back through the doorway he’d come through. Instantly Adam snapped awake. His head jerked back and began to throb like someone had kicked him in the face. A sense of horror and panic swept over him. He cupped Dani’s face in his hands, “Dani. God, Dani. Sweetheart!”
Issues
                The group sat listening to what Adam had found out and seen. He paced like a cornered wolf full of rage and fury feeling powerless. “How can he still be alive?” Jeremy asked, “You said that she was to young to turn anyone. That her blood was toxic, extremely poisonous to humans.”
                “She’s unique.” Marlowe said, “Everything we know of our kind in certain areas seems not to apply where our young Dani is concerned.”
                Eve listened holding the baby as she fed her. Kaylee could hardly stand it anymore and was more then willing to chance the danger and stood walking over to Eve requesting a turn. Eve smiled wondering how long it was going to take before she wanted to try. Gently she passed the little one into the young woman’s eager arms. Kaylee grinned taking the bottle and anxiously began to feed her. Eve placed a gentle kiss to the baby’s head before walking over to Adam. “Darling, it was a very traumatic birth. We didn’t have anything to give her for pain. She had to endure so much.” She reminded him.
                “He’s doing something to her. To keep her there and trapped.” He said continuing to pace. “She can’t hear me. Wherever her mind has gone . . . I can’t reach her.” He said in frustration. Kaylee moved closer to Adam wanting him to see his little girl. However Adam turned away with barely a glance continuing to pace. Kaylee frowned and looked to eve. Eve gave a nod letting her know it was alright. Kaylee couldn’t understand this and moved to Jeremy sitting down next to him.
                “The answer seems obvious then.” Marlowe said, “Destroy Sean’s physical body and release your young woman.”
                “Except we’d have to find him first.” Eve said, “Under the circumstances, I fear that it may be easier said than done. Dani may have been the only way to find him.”
                “She isn’t dead.” Adam said sternly.
                “Oh darling, I know she isn’t.” Eve said not having meant to upset him.
                “Adam, you and she share the same blood. The bond you share with her, the link is stronger than with anyone else. It may be more difficult but you should be able to make a connection with him.” Marlowe suggested. It turned Adam’s stomach, the thought of having to touch that degenerate in any way other than to rip his head from his shoulders, was revolting.
                “You guys do the weird telepathic mojo, I’m going to go more old school. I know how to break into their system through the back door. If he’s still alive and he isn’t supposed to be then I’ll be he is their favorite project.” Jeremy said.
                Eve gave a nod, “Just be careful Jeremy. Dani wouldn’t want you or Kaylee to put yourselves in harm’s way.”
                “If they find out about the baby, they are going to come after Dani harder than ever.” Jeremy said looking at the little one his fiancé held in her arms.
Nightmares and Daydreams
                Sean lay next to Dani as she slept, his hand slowly stroking down the length of her body from her neck down to her thighs in long deliberate purposeful strokes as if memorizing every inch, every curve, every feel of her form under his touch finding it just as he had remembered. As he had dreamed while she was away from him.
                “I’ve missed you princess.” He whispered, “I miss how we were when we lived together in the underground compound. When you let me hold you, and care for you. They way you would sleep in my arms, the way you would touch me . . . and when we made love, you made love with your whole body. The way you kissed me . . . the way you tasted . . . “ He turned her face towards him before kissing her, he closed his eyes running his tongue over his teeth remember their first kiss that night on the roof in Tangiers. Before things seemed to fall apart.
                He rested his hand over her abdomen just studying her face. “I know you don’t know about it, but you shared your soul with me when I drank your blood. I suffered in countless horrid ways. Until I learned how to control my mind. I found other vampires, I could sense them and track them. It’s how I found Ava, how I found how what she and her friends did to you. What they all did to you. They deserved to die. Her more than other knowing who you were. “
                Reaching down he took her hand lacing his fingers with hers, “Now that he’s gone we can finally be together.” He kissed her knuckles, “I won’t let him intrude here again. I promise.” He kissed her lips once again eager for her to wake up and look at him. “The sooner you forget him and move forward the better. Whatever he did to hurt you like this . . . he will never do it again.” He was quiet for a moment just studying her before sighing, “But no matter what atrocities he inflicted on you . . . you’ll forgive him for it won’t you. NO matter what was done.” Sean sighed, “What has he ever done to have earn such blind and dutiful love and devotion? When he doesn’t even show you the same? He’s married Dani, and it isn’t to you. IT’s to someone who was there long before you. He isn’t going to leave her; you will never be first in his heart. But . . .” Sean leaned in close to her face speaking gently, “But you are in mine. Always my princess, always. Always.” He kissed her again.
Maternal Instincts
                Kaylee sighed in frustration as she stood in the nursery carefully placing the sleeping little one in her crib. She was incredibly frustrated by the complete lack of interest Adam had in the baby and couldn’t understand what the problem was. It was like his attitude changed completely when she was born.
                “What’s troubling you dear?” Eve asked having come in while Kaylee was lost deep in thought. She jumped slightly not having heard her come in. Eve could tell that something had been bothering her for a while.
                Kaylee took a breath, “He hasn’t held her Eve, hasn’t touched her, just barely glanced at her once or twice and that’s it. I know she wasn’t planned for, but it seemed as though they wanted her. If they didn’t then they . . . . Dani could have . . .” Her worlds trailed off. Even though she was an OBGYN and her view on the subject hat to be purely nutrul and academic professionally, her personal and private beliefs tended to be against abortion except in emergency cases.
                “Kaylee,” Eve said gently walking over and standing next to the crib with her. “Adam is carrying a great deal of guilt on his shoulders for all of this. That Dani has suffered through every step of her pregnancy, and he feels that he is the cause for all of her pain. “ She explained. “Yes, he has come around to the idea of being a father, and he will want to protect and care for her and of course he loves her without question. But he fears for Dani, afraid that she is slipping away and he’s holding onto her with everything in him.” Kaylee shook her head still not understanding what they had to do with the baby. “Should we lose Dani, Adam already feels the guilt and responsibility of depriving his daughter of her mother.”
                Now Kaylee seemed able to understand what was going on better. Her eyes turned to the sleeping vampire newborn. It wasn’t that Adam didn’t want her or didn’t love her, he felt inadequate as her protector as long as Dani was in this state. He couldn’t face her. Not yet. She gave a nod deciding to stop pressing Adam about it, as it only upset him more. “Eve,” she began quietly. “Who is Sean?”
                Eve furrowed her brow looking at Kaylee, “Jeremy never told you?” She asked astonished as that was a rather large part of all the trouble Dani had gone through.
                “No, it’s one of the points he’s been vague about. I think maybe because whatever happened to her was upsetting for her. He tries not to add to that by passing on stories she’d rather were forgotten.” She knew they were best friends and it didn’t bother her that he kept her confidence. That’s what friends do for each other.
                “It’s something extremely humiliating for her. For all of us and it infuriates Adam to the core. We’ve not talked about it since we last brought her home to us.” She paused,” He was meant to be to be dead.” They hoped never to speak of it again, but it had come back. Eve sat down with Kaylee and began to tell her everything that happened. Kaylee’s stomach twisted as she listened.
                Kaylee was silent, shocked to hear everything Eve had just explained. Shocked that such torture and experiments had taken place and were done to Dani. Perhaps she wasn’t human anymore but she was still a sentient, intelligent, self aware being. How could they do such horrid things to her. “But . . . she’s safe now. She’s in a safe place away from him. Right? He doesn’t have her, she’s here with us now.”
                “If what Adam says is true, then her body is with us and is safe, but Dani . . . inside of her that makes her dani, is being held captive somewhere else. By him.” Eve shook her head, “He should be long since dead . . . it’s . . . it’s utterly horrifying that he’s still alive. Once he was given her blood . . . he could have survived a week at much.” Eve replied.
                “So then he’s a vampire? Like you guys. Right?” She questioned.
                “No.” Eve said her eyes turning downcast. “He’s something else. Something vile. Something more dangerous then we are. He’s an abomination.” Eve reached into the crib and gently stroked the baby’s soft dark hair. “Once again he’s trespassed and violated our family.”
                “We have to find him.” Kaylee said in a soft voice.” We have to finish what you and Adam started. So he doesn’t come back again.”
                “He could be anywhere, and without Dani to help us locate him. . . It will be difficult.”
Friend Or Foe
                Adam stepped closer to the living room window looking out through the curtain. Still they had ‘guests’ that remained on the property line starring at the house. They hadn’t crossed it and when the sun came up they disappeared again until it went down. It was a bit unnerving not knowing why they were here.
                “They are his eyes.” Marlowe said standing next to Adam. “If what you say is true, then he’s perfected his telepathic connection to others. Read their thoughts and even control them.”
                “IF that were the case, then how is it he doesn’t know about the birth of the child? It was almost as though about it’s existence at all.” Adam said not making any sense of this. Marlowe was silent not answering him as he stared at his fellow vampire. Adam furrowed his brow looking at the old vampire, “What?”
                “Adam, you can’t keep denying her like this.” He said directly “She is your daughter and she is born. Because her mother is in dire circumstance is no excuse not to accept her.”
                He clinched his jaw looking back out the window. “I don’t deny her.”
                “Really?” Marlowe said arching a brow. “Why is it then that she’s been in this world for 3 nights and yet still doesn’t have a name?”
                “She has a name.” Adam snapped.
                “Then give it to her.” Marlowe said sternly. Adam clinched his jaw again and narrowed his eyes stubbornly. “Are you truly saying that your young woman would want you to continue to ignore your daughter in this negligent fashion?” He questioned. Adam had stated before and still held it now, more than ever. That if he had to choose between Dani and the baby, it would always be Dani he chose. Yet he knew too, that she would want him to watch over their little when she couldn’t. He sighed knowing he couldn’t put it off any longer. For Dani’s sake.
Leads and Dead Ends
                Kaylee stood rocking the baby gently having just fed her. She contentedly dozed in her arm arms snuggled in tight. “You’d think they would have changed the firewalls at least.” Kaylee said watching Jeremy work on the three laptops.
                “They did, but they favor the same formats. Like a bunch of monkeys with no sense of reasoning whatsoever. Not that I’m complaining.” He admitted, “Makes things a bit easier.”
                “Have you found anything?” Eve asked bringing food in she’d fixed for Kaylee and Jeremy. Jeremy thanked her but Kaylee didn’t want to hand over the newborn quite yet. Needless to say she was in love with the little one. Eve smiled knowing when it was time, She and Jeremy would make wonderful parents.
                “They’ve definitely had a turn of luck. Their funding has gone up and I’ve counted 8 test subjects. They’ve studied and even to autopsy and vivisection reports are all on fire.” Jeremy said indicating a file of indications marked as ‘terminated’. Apparently their dry spell of not having vampires has passed.”
                “Sean.” Eve said with a sigh rubbing her eyes. “He’s been tracking them for those sadists.”
                “Which would make him their prized asset. Some of their facilities we knew about before are gone now. Either shut down or moved.” Jeremy said moving to another laptop.
                “How’s the blood supply, Eve?” Kaylee asked.
                “Joseph and I are going to make a run tonight. I don’t want our stores to get down to low and be a problem just waiting to happen. “ She said looking over Jeremy’s shoulder. She started to say something else but the room fell silent. Adam stood in silence at the door way with Marlowe standing nearby. His eyes were fixed firmly on the baby. Eve was surprised yet relieved and excited at the same time.
                After a moment, he stepped into the room walking to Kaylee never moving his eyes from the tiny child. She truly was beautiful and she’d inherited a number of her mother’s beautiful features. Eve quietly walked over putting her hand on his back, leaning her head to his shoulder. After a few moments she reached out gently taking the little one from Kaylee and carefully placing her in her father’s arms.
                Her small sparkling eyes looked up at him and he felt a hitch in his heart. They were Dani’s beautiful amethyst eyes, clear and shining like her mothers. Adam cradled her close as she smiled and cooed. It seemed she knew who he was already.
                “What’s her name Adam?” Kaylee asked in a soft voice.
                His eyes still never moving from his daughter he answered, “Johanna.” It wasn’t one anyone expected but it was lovely. After going through millions of possibilities they had decided on Johanna. “Her name is Johanna.”
                Jeremy smiled recognizing the name, happy for Dani that Adam agreed to giving their daughter her sisters name. It was one of the most devastating and damaging things in her life having both lost her sister and been the one to find her when she was still only a kid. Kaylee smiled as well sitting on Jeremy’s lap finally seeing Adam bonding with his little girl.
Rip Tides
                Sean’s hands moved up Dani’s arm, before shooing a spot before injecting her with a large dose of a thick serum. At first there was no response or reaction, but then she started to twitch, then wince, then she grasped for air as her other hand snapped up covering the pain growing in her shoulder. She cried out and sat up violently in a cold sweat. A smile swept Sean’s face, “I wasn’t certain that would work or not.” He put the syringe aside rubbing the injection site.
                Dani was disorientated as she looked around, somewhere between sleep and awake. “Adam?” She asked not seeing him anywhere, her hands going to her abdomen finding it flat, her body empty as she looked down at herself. What happened to the baby? Sean’s expression dimmed a bit when ‘Adam’ was the first word on her lips when being in such a condition for heaven knows how long. As she woke up a bit more she suddenly realized who was with her. “Sean?” She said in disbelief never having expected to see him again. Her eyes turned to what was in the syringe. “What was that? What did you just do to me?”
                “How do you feel?” He questioned before motioning to her mouth. “Do you have metallic taste on your tongue? Like greasy nickels?” Dani gave a nod and he grinned, “That’s amazing. Considering I didn’t give you anything. Not really.” She started to argue but he stopped her, “No, I’m not calling you a liar or think you’re making it up. It’s just that we are so bound together; my knowing the side effects causes you to experience them. It’s extraordinary.” Dani frowned continuing to rub her sore arm. “I’m sorry princess.” He apologized sincerely. “But I had to find a way to wake you and bring you back to me.”
                “To you? Where’s Eve and Adam? Where are we?” She demanded looking around, “Where is . . .” She stopped resting her hand over her belly. What happened to her baby, where was she? How in the world did she end up with Sean again?
                “It’s so wonderful to see you again Dani. I’ve missed you so much.” He took her hand and kissed it holding it tight. She half smiled, trying to be gracious knowing how he tried to help and advocate on her behalf when she was imprisoned and tested on like some lab rat. But that didn’t absolve him of everything he’d done to them. To her. She gently pulled her hand from is not wanting him to touch her. Remembering when he touched her so many times before, it sent an icy chill down her spine.
                “Sean,” She began carefully, “I need to go home. Eve and Adam . . . they’re probably very worried about me. Wondering where I am.” Her hand rested over her abdomen again, terrified that she’d had a miscarriage and lost the baby. How could she face Adam again if she had lost his child?
                “Dani,” he began moving a little closer to her. “I”ve been looking for you for a while. I really have missed you. You disappeared after we broke you out of the compound. I help Adam and Eve get you away before the compound went into lock down. You were so heavily sedated when they came for you, you slept another day.” He paused a moment, “Before we . . . parted ways and they took you from me.”
                Dani furrowed her brow as she looked at him not understanding. “Sean . . . what have you done? Have you stolen me from my home? From my family again?” She stood from the bed walking to the window. She opened it then quickly pulled back finding it bright as day. She paused a moment realizing she didn’t feel a burn, or her flesh scorched with the light. Stepping back from the curtain she reached up and slowly pulled it open. It was warm, but there was no pain, no burning.
                Sean watched her and smiled before walking to her at the window. “Don’t be afraid.” He said with a smile reaching for the curtain and pulling it open all the way. Dani shied away covering her head expecting pain and torture but it didn’t come. Slowly she raised her head looking up bathed in the sunlight that flooded the room. Sean reached out taking her hand in his. “You’re safe here with me. Nothing will harm you or hurt you again. Not even the sun can harm you here.”
                “What are you talking about?” She said confused and a bit frustrated “Where are we? Where have you taken me!”
                Sean just smiled at her, “Not to worry princess.” Reaching over he placed his hand over hers, “You’ll always be safe with me.”
